The reason for that repression, of course, is that there’s vigilante work to be done, and there’s no time for a conversation at the moment. This is a couple, after all, built on subtext (season two’s “Unthinkable”) and repression (almost all of season three), so it makes sense that their disintegration would follow the same unspoken path. There’s no need for grand speeches throughout the episode to get across her disappointment in Oliver or to create tension. Thankfully, Rickards opts for a more subtle approach, especially when it comes to dealing with Oliver’s betrayal. It would be tempting for any actress to overplay even one of those dramatic developments. To top it all off, she puts aside her devastation and heartbreak to help Oliver find his son. There is a lot happening in Felicity Smoak’s life right now. Immediately after Felicity finds out that she won’t be able to walk again, she’s confronted by the man who ordered her killed, and learns her fiancé has a secret kid. “Who’s William?” Felicity innocently asks. As Oliver starts to comfort her, a loud, sarcastic clapping sound is heard offscreen: It’s Damien Darhk! And to make matters worse - like, much, much worse - Darhk reveals that he’s kidnapped William. A dispirited Felicity admits to Oliver that, even though it sounded like “science fiction,” she was still disappointed to learn the device didn’t take. “Taken” opens with Felicity learning that the spinal-implantation device Curtis developed to help her walk again is not working. (Why do Thea and Malcolm know, but not Felicity?) On the other hand, that choice, as contrived as it felt, led to some great scenes tonight - Emily Bett Rickards in particular turned out a fantastic performance - and I’m cautiously optimistic about how the show will handle the fallout from this point on. On the one hand, Oliver’s decision to hide the news from Felicity strained logic and credulity. The secret-love-child plot is a divisive one. Want scoop on Arrow, or for any other show?

On the non-casting front, Amell revealed, “Oliver has an apartment this year,” and that though the hero’s five-year odyssey has been fully chronicled, flashbacks still will play a role on the series, in part to flesh out supporting characters’ backstories. Amell also teased that “we have somebody returning to the show this year that we have not seen since Season 1.” (The actor dropped a similar hint a year ago, and it turned out to be Bratva member Anatoly.)
